In the business world, if a mail is addressed to several people, who
will be the one who answers? If the sender puts several addresses in
the same company / department into the TO field, my experience shows
that everybody thinks one of the others will reply and therefore
nobody will.

There are reasons to have multiple recipients in the TO field, for
example when you send party invitations to a small group of friends.
Whether replies should go to all or only to the host, is another
discussion.

In any case, whoever replies to a message with multiple TO recipients,
will reply to the person who sent the message, not to the others being
copied in. Hence, I agree wth Roelof.

It  really  doesn't  do much sense, IMHO. I agree with Carsten it make
all  the  difference (IMHO, not only in Business environments) who you
send  the  message  to  and  who  you  give  notice  of that. And when
replying, is of good sense (at least) to keep it the same way.
